Subject: [ath9k-devel] Disable ACKs and Retransmission with ath9k_htc

You can disable ACKs by setting a bogus MAC address, or by setting the
AR_DIAG_ACK_DIS of the AR_DIAG_SW register.

Retransmissions are also controllable, generally you can do this by
setting the "tries" or "retries" field of the Tx control structure to
one/zero.
